I fucking hate bearing witness of a slow collapse of a world power from where I'm sitting at... It's been almost ten months since that fucking day.
This shutdown is just one of the steps towards what amounts to a mafia dictatorship by committee.
Oh the smoke's been there for a while, the fire has been burning, and now that the flaming debris is falling to the ground you notice, that's all.
Slow collapse? 10 months feels extremely fast to manage taking an economy that was at least somewhat stable and possibly on the rise to straight-up dumpster fire along with everything else thats just crazy thrown in for good fun. Felt really fast to lose it all..
The reason that it's so fast is that the economy never really recovered from Reagan, he took a jackhammer to the base level foundation and empowered the corporations. Fact of the matter is the building was already leaning due to being too top heavy, Trump just kicked out the reinforcement struts that were slowing the inevitable collapse.
